The different configuration and sizing options for double-hung windows

Why you should choose Stanek double-hung vinyl windows

So you’ve decided that your home needs new windows. What comes next? Understanding which window styles are available and learning about the benefits of each is extremely important. Double-hung replacement windows are a popular choice because of their beauty, versatility and various customizable options.

What is a Double-Hung Window?

Double-hung windows have two sashes in a single frame, with both sashes able to slide up or down independently to provide exceptional ventilation. The sashes remain flush with the wall while the window is open, which makes them a great choice for walls next to patios, decks and walkways. The difference between single- and double-hung windows is that a single-hung window has a fixed top window sash, which allows only the bottom window sash to slide up and down, while double-hung windows offer two sashes that are able to slide up or down independently. Double-hung windows are easier to clean and are ideal when the height of the window opening is taller than the width.
